Visualizing video game sales data
The dataset used in this workspace is a subset of the data found here. It contains records of popular video games in North America, Japan, Europe and other parts of the world. Every video game in this dataset has at least 100k global sales.
The hidden code below aggregates platform sales across North America, Japan, and Europe, and prepares them for visualization using a chart cell.
Next, we use a chart cell to create a grouped bar chart of the data.
- We select the DataFrame to use (
df_melt). - We select
Platformto be on the x-axis. - We select
Salesto be on the y-axis. - We group the data by
Region. - Finally, we edit the title to give an accurate description of the chart!
